Played either in whole step down tuning like most of The Neighbourhood's songs
but it can be played in standard.
In the verse's you would play this tab but if you'd rather strum them then play the chords as normal
Play this in the verses
e|7-7--x-7-x-7-7-x-10-9-7--7-7-x--7-x--5-5-x-7-5----------------------------------|
B|8-8--x-8-x-8-8-x-8--8-9--7-7-x--7-x--6-6-x-6-6----------------------------------|
G|9-9--x-9-x-9-9-x-9--9-9--7-7-x--7-x--6-6-x-6-6----------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
100% sure the finger positions are right but have a play around with the timing of
the mutes (x) to find what you like/sounds best.
Other important note, in the verses the G chord is played in its bar form on the third fret and
all the chords in the bridge where it hits the "if i run, if i run away you'll never know" bit, the G
is played in its bar form on the third fret, the A played in its bar form on the 5th fret and the Bm played
in its bar form on seventh fret.
